The Base Salary, Benefits, and Bonus presentation will provide SFU VentureLabs members with a holistic view of total compensation. BLANKSLATE Partners HR experts, Alissa and Allyson have worked with many start-ups and small businesses to develop their compensation philosophy and policies. In their experience, the earlier you set up your compensation philosophy, the easier it is to maintain equity when hiring new employees. This session will cover the different types of compensation (cash vs non-monetary), strategies for when you can't afford to pay at market level (how to supplement your base salary with benefits/bonus) and tools you can use to administer payroll quickly and easily! Join us for this informative session
